Definitions
- a flashlight battery consisting of alkaline manganese dioxide-zinc cells, wherein each cell includes two shells forming a plastic casing and current GALVANIC BATTERY collectors, the casing accommodating two zinc powder nega- 7 C 6 Dnwlng 8 tive electrodes disposed on both sides of a positive electrode 152 U.S. c1. 136/107, and Separated therefrom y p g In each Shell of the 36/1 11' [36/122 3 1 35 cell casing provision is made on the edge periphery for exten- 51 1111. c1 1161111 21/00 siohs which form a p john when assembling the cell.
- the m j f '1'3 fi3'2' cells assembled in banks are placed in a hermetic plastic film 147, 111, 107, 125, 126, l30, 102, 166, 6, 30, 3, bag contained within a cellulosic outer casing of the galvanic battery.
- GALVANIC BATTERY This invention relates to galvanic batteries.
- galvanic batteries e.g. flashlight batteries, consisting of alkaline manganese dioxide-zinc cells, wherein each cell, includes a plastic casing with current collectors which accommodates a manganese dioxide cathode, a separator disposed on one side of the cathode, and a zinc pressed-powder anode.
- galvanic batteries show a marked decrease in capacity under high drain conditions.
- Another disadvantage of such galvanic batteries is that the electrolyte and carbonates tend to leak to the battery surface during long-term storage and discharge of the batteries.
- a galvanic battery e.g. a flashlight battery, consisting of alkaline manganese dioxide-zinc cells, wherein each cell includes a plastic casing with current collectors which accommodates a cathode, two diaphragms disposed on both sides of the cathode, and two zinc powder anodes separated from the cathode by the diaphragms, the cell casing being made in the form of two shells within which the three electrodes are disposed.
- a galvanic battery e.g. a flashlight battery, consisting of alkaline manganese dioxide-zinc cells, wherein each cell includes a plastic casing with current collectors which accommodates a cathode, two diaphragms disposed on both sides of the cathode, and two zinc powder anodes separated from the cathode by the diaphragms, the cell casing being made in the form of two shells within which the three electrodes are disposed.
- each shell has provision on its edge periphery for an extension for insulating the negative and the positive current collectors from each other by forming a lap joint from the edge extensions of both shells when assembling the cell.
- a bank of assembled cells are housed in a hermetic plastic bag to be contained within a cellulosic outer casing.
- the electrodes surface areas are twice as great as that of the known batteries and the discharge current will be correspondingly higher.
- the cutoff voltage equals 2.25 V.
- FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a galvanic battery cell in which the cell casing is made of two shells of dissimilar size, according to the invention
- FIG. 2 is the plan view of the cell of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of a galvanic battery cell in which the cell casing is made of two shells of identical size, according to the invention
- FIG. 4 presents one possible form of the cathode
- FIG. 5 shows in section an assembled galvanic battery, according to the invention.
- FIG. 6 is the plan view of the battery of FIG. 5.
- An alkaline manganese dioxide-zinc cell 1 (FIGS. 1 and 2) of the galvanic battery is housed in a casing consisting of first and second shells 2 and 3 of dissimilar size, provision being made for an improved hermetic seal for the casing by allowing shell 2 to partially enter or overlap shell 3.
- a cathode 4 Disposed inside the casing are a cathode 4, diaphragms 5 and 6 and zinc powder anodes 7 and 8 adjoining to and separated by the diaphragms from both sides of the cathode.
- a positive current collector or terminal 9 is pressed into cathode 4, while negative current collectors or terminals 12 and 13 connected to anodes 7 and 8 are brought out of the cell casing via openings and 11 in shells 2 and 3.
- an insulating composition is first and second shells are equal in size.
- FIG. 3 Shown in FIG. 3 is the alkaline manganese dioxide-zinc cell 1, which is contained in a casing in the form of two shells 2 and 3' of identical size.
- the entire galvanic battery is made of identical shells 2' and 3, which simplifies the process of assembling the galvanic batteries and diminishes the production cost.
- FIG. 4 shows one possible form of cathode 4, which is rectangular and contains a wire helix serving as positive current collector 9.
- Alkaline manganese dioxide-zinc cells 1 are assembled in banks (FIGS. 5 and 6) by placing cells 1 one above another and using a binding band 16 to tie the cells together to panel 17 to which are secured positive and negative current collectors l8 and 19.
- negative current collectors 12 and 13 should be connected in pairs and also joined to positive current collector 9 of an adjacent cell.
- the connection of current collectors is effected by twisting together or welding appropriate current collectors.
- the terminal current collectors in a bank of cells are sol dered or welded to appropriate current collectors 18 and 19 of the galvanic battery.
- the current collectors pass under binding band 16 and a thin insulating coating is applied thereto.
- a bank of cells 1 is placed in an insulating plastic bag 20, tag a polyethylene film, which is sealed except for apertures through which current collectors 18 and 19 pass.
- the assembled banks of cells 1 are inserted into an outer casing made, for example, from paper and the apertures through which current collectors l8 and 19 emerge from the plastic bag are sealed with an insulating composition 21.
- a galvanic battery comprising alkaline manganese dioxide-zinc cells, a plastic casing, said plastic casing having a first and a second shell, said first and second shells forming said casing and having projecting members, said projecting member of said first shell overlapping said projecting member of said second shell when said casing is assembled, at least two zinc powder anodes, a cathode, diaphragms, and current collectors pressed into said anodes and cathode, said diaphragms separating said anodes from said cathodes, and said anodes, cathodes and diaphragms being housed within said casing, and said current collectors extending out of the cell.
- each battery forms an elementary cell and a plurality of said elementary cells are assembled together to form a bank of elementary cells, a hermetic plastic film bag, and a cellulosic outer casing, said outer casing enclosing said film bag, said film bag enclosing said bank of elementary cells.
- each battery forms an elementary cell and a plurality of said elementary cells are assembled together to form a bank of elementary cells, a hermetic plastic film bag, and a cellulosic outer casing, said outer casing enclosing said film bag, said film bag enclosing said bank of elementary cells.
